belt feed ak-47

I just recentlly finished a beltfeed ak-47 base fire arm with a scratch built receiver, a MG-3 top cover/belt feed mechanism, FAL fcg, scratch built stock, grip frame & grips and forearm, k98 rear sight and m60 return spring. You can see photos of it on PHOTOBUCKET, search for 300 WSM FAL or SHARPSSHOOTER5090.

"To show you how radical I am, I want carjackers dead. I want rapists dead. I want burglars dead. I want child molesters dead. I want the bad guys dead. No court case. No parole. No early release. I want 'em dead. Get a gun and when they attack you, shoot 'em."

The barrel, trunion, bolt, and bolt carrier are ak-47. The receiver is scratch built form 1 1/2' by 2' retangular steel tubing. The bolt carrier has a piece welded on the back of it for a m_60 return spring to connect to. The weld piece aslo has a slot machined into the bottom for an extended FAL hammer to swing into to stike a spring retun extended ak firing pin. On top of the welded piece is mounted a roller that rided in the feed cam slot of aMG-3 top cover/feed mechanism. The gas tube is made out of a 12 ga barrel section and a larger gas piston is silver soldered to the originial ak gas piston to give the bolt carrier extra push to operate the beltfeed. The belt is MG3 which holds the 7.62x39 cartridge not as tight as a RPD belt. The gas relief holes in the gas tube are drilled at the end of the gas piston stroke to make the system a long stroke piston, again to give the bolt carrier extra push to operate the feed mechanim. It ejects down low to the left and the ejected cartridges just miss the SAW-249 50 round cloth cartridge bag. Rear sight is K98. There is a front barrel extension fitte to the ak barrel to keep the pressure up longer inorder to aid in operating the feed mechanim. The butt stock, pistol grip assy and the forearm are scratch built. The fcg is FAL. Flash hider is L1A1. The gas port is drilled out to .187 dia. The bi-pod is import RPK style. The feed tray is alto scratch built.
